In November of the fourth year of Jian'an, a naval battle occurred in the Yellow Sea. ※※

The two sides of the war were the Changcen Pirates and the Han Navy. This naval battle was an encounter. Since the beginning of winter, due to the chaos in Liaodong, the Changcen Pirates had not gone out to sea to clean up. This also caused Changcen's supplies to gradually become scarce. Feng Chi finally decided to order the Changcen Pirates to attack and prepare to attack Donglai. However, unexpectedly, on the way out, the Changcen Pirates encountered the Han Navy.

After Gan Ning was ordered, he sent ships to look for fighter planes and prepared to have a decisive battle with the Changcen thief Zhanchan.

But the two pirates lived in simplicity, which made Gan Ning feel very helpless.

After finally waiting for the Changcen thief to come out, how could Gan Ning let the other party go?

So, the two sides had a game at sea. The Changcen thief dispatched thirteen sea ships, but Gan Ning only brought six sea ships, disguised as merchant ships, and passed through the Yellow Sea. The Changcen thief naturally discovered such a fleet, changed his target immediately, and decided to slaughter the merchant ships.

In this way, Ganning's navy and Changcen Pirates encountered the sea fifty nautical miles east of the Ocean Island on a misty morning.

The war lasted from early morning to noon.

The fog on the sea has dissipated, and eight sea boats are burning and are engulfed by the fire.

Two of the tower ships were the Han Navy, while the other six were all pirate ships...

The losses of both sides were extremely heavy. The Changcen thief was the first to withdraw and prepare to evacuate the battlefield.

I thought that our ships had a numerical advantage and could easily destroy the other party. But I knew that the other party's sea boat was equipped with long-range attack weapons similar to catapults, which were specially used to throw tincture oil. The tincture oil was also mixed with ignition-enhancing items such as saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal powder. Of course, these three items were also the basic raw materials for black gunpowder later, but it was not invented by Liu Chuang, but an ordinary craftsman in Shijiutuo dock. He discovered it accidentally and was quickly promoted in the dock.

Of course, gunpowder has not been made yet.

People only found that after adding these three materials to tinder oil, it can accelerate combustion and have more powerful destructive power.

Unlike before, it is simply relying on tinder oil and rosin and other combustible materials, when the three raw materials are mixed with tinder oil, the combustion speed is very fast, to an unimaginable level. Moreover, the fire is difficult to control and once it burns, it will spread rapidly.

For this reason, Shijiutuo Dock created more than a thousand tincture oil pouring and secretly sent it to Dashi.

The rod equipped on the Han Army's tower ship, combined with this special tincture oil injection, has a huge lethality to the Changcen Pirates.

As soon as the naval battle began, two sea boats were hit by tinder oil...

However, the pirate's fierce aura was fully revealed at this time. After being hit by a turbulent tank, the two pirate ships saw that they could no longer be saved, so they drove the ships and collided with the Han army's tower ships. The two Han army's tower ships lost their combat capabilities and were seriously damaged.

The Han army still had four sea ships.

After losing six sea ships, Changcen pirates still have seven left.

At this time, the Changcen thief had already realized the power of the Han army and was ready to escape from the battlefield.

It was at this moment that a tower ship with golden sails suddenly rushed over and intercepted a pirate tower ship.

Gan Ning took the lead and rushed to the Pirate Tower Ship. After killing twenty-one pirates, he successfully rushed into the Pirate Tower Ship's Bird Room and killed the pirate leader of the sea ship on the spot. At the same time, Zhou Cang and Du Ji joined forces to intercept the next Pirate Tower Ship.

The remaining sea ship took the opportunity to cover up and fired tinned oil tanks at the pirates who were trying to come to rescue, and forced the other party back...

Seeing that the two pirate ships had fallen into the hands of the Han army, the remaining five pirate ships were panicked and did not dare to continue to entangle and fled in a hurry.

After this battle, the Han Navy became famous in the Yellow Sea.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Changcen, Bailing Island.

Feng Chi stood on the pier with his hands in his arms, looking out at the sea.

A few black dots appeared on the sea surface. His eyes narrowed and his face showed a solemn look.

"General Feng is the ship occupying the cicada tower."

A scout came to report, Feng Chi nodded, then boarded a sea boat, and ordered: "Drive the boat and go out to sea with me to welcome Master Li."

Three sea boats slowly sailed away from the dock and headed towards the sea.

Feng Chi stood on the deck, but he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In Lelang County, there are two pirates who are powerful. One is Li Dayin's Zhanchan thief, and the other is Changcen thief in Feng Chi's hands.

However, the two pirates started differently.

Li Dayin was originally the son of a pariah. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Li Dayin joined the Liaodong Army and served under Gongsun Yan's tent. Because he grew up on the sea and was proficient in boat operations, he was valued by Gongsun Yan. At that time, Gongsun Yan was separating Liaodong and lacked supplies. So he had the idea of ​​using pirates to plunder the coast and rob the population of wealth and goods, so he appointed Li Dayin to form the Zhanchan Thief.

After Li Dayin returned to Zhan Chan, he summoned a group of his friends from that time.

Lelang County was in chaos, with pirates, bandits and bandits rampant. Most of his partners were outlaws, who could endure hardships and dared to fight for their lives. With Gongsun Yan's support behind him, Zhanchan's thief developed into a pirate with more than 50 sea ships in just a few years. Later, Gongsun Yan died and Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong, and was quite afraid of Li Dayin. Li Dayin was also a strong man. In anger, he took Zhanchan's thief and left Xi'anping and returned to Zhanchan's hometown. Through his powerful force, he conquered Zhanchan's county in one fell swoop.

Subsequently, Li Dayin developed rapidly based on occupying cicadas.

Under his command, people from Goguryeo, people from Liaodong County, people from Fuyu, people from Wuwan... reached tens of thousands of people, becoming an extremely powerful force in Lelang County, called Zhanchan Thief.

When Gongsun Du saw Li Dayin leave, he simply cut off his connection with Li Dayin.

Li Dayin was nominally loyal to the Han Dynasty when Zhan Chan was independent, but in fact he specialized in pirate affairs and ran rampant at the sea...

The Changcen thief, who is as famous as Li Dayin, is taking another path.

Fengchi is a child of Changcen Feng family.

The Changcen Feng clan claimed to be a descendant of Fenghou, a general under Huangdi, and even more so was the Changcen famous clan.

During the Xiping period, Goguryeo King Bogu attacked Lelang and even plundered the wife of the prefect of Lelang, and Lelang County immediately fell into chaos.

In order to protect himself, Feng family formed a village hero.

Because of his great power in the wind and his proficiency in military tactics, he was the leader to defend his hometown.

However, with the financial resources of Feng, he could not support such a rural savage, let alone the lack of food, supplies and weapons... So Feng was moved by the pirates, spent all his money, bought six tower ships, and formed the Chang Cen thief. Feng Chi also quickly strengthened the pirate with his military strategy and strategy. He became a force that cannot be despised in Lelang County, and was rampant on the sea.

The Changcen bandits gathered nearly 100,000 people, with more than 80 sea boats. Because of the Feng family's reputation, they have a high status in Lelang County.

Unlike Li Dayin, who was a thief in Zhanchan, the Feng family is a prominent family, so they have a wide connection. Moreover, most of their subordinates are Han people and have strong hostility towards the Goguryeo people.

The two pirates do not interact with each other, and sometimes even conflicts.

However, whether it is Fengchi or Li Dayin, he always maintains restraint. Although there are constant conflicts, he also watches and helps each other. He has become the most powerful force in Lelang County.

Bailing Island is the foundation of Fengchi.

This time he took the initiative to invite Li Dayin to come. It was the first time in ten years.

Feng Chi had no choice but to invite Li Dayin. He is now facing an extremely difficult problem and needs to discuss with Li Dayin.

After all, we are the actual controllers of Lelang County, so it is better to discuss what you have to do.

Two pirate ships met in the sea about twenty miles away from Bailing Island.

After Li Dayin's ship and Fengchi's ship met on the sea, Fengchi did not hesitate at all and then stepped along the board to board Li Dayin's ship.

"Dayin, don't be fine."

Feng Chi is tall and has a scholarly atmosphere.

Li Dayin was short, thick and sturdy, and dark skin.

The lines on the face are clear and angular, with a pair of eyes and a bright look.

He dressed simply, and at first glance he looked like a fisherman sleeping in the open. When he stood with Fengchi, he seemed even more vulgar.

But don't underestimate Li Dayin just because of his appearance.

As a son of a pariah, he became the leader of the cicada thief, gathered tens of thousands of people, and became a force that no one in Lelang County could ignore... Such a person, no matter how vulgar he looks, should not be underestimated. At the beginning, many people who underestimated Li Dayin have now been buried in the sea. Those who know him know that this guy looks rude and is indeed a cunning fox.

Feng Chi nicknamed Jinao, while Li Dayin was called Shui Fox.

If we look at the appearance of the two of them alone, it may be the most appropriate to change these two nicknames.

Li Dayin smiled and said, "Brother Feng summoned him, how dare Dayin not come?

But Brother Feng, you are so serious about me, I must have good things to take care of. Damn, the current situation in Liaodong this year is too chaotic, and I have tens of thousands of brothers under my command are so hungry... If Brother Feng, you are looking for me, I am going to go out to sea and walk on a trip."

Sea breeze, strong sturdy.

The wind blew and the brocade robe was rushing.

He subconsciously wrapped his fur robe tightly and said to Li Dayin: "The sea breeze is too strong, so let's talk in the cabin."

A strange look appeared on Li Dayin's face and smiled and said, "Brother Feng, if you don't dislike my kennel, I will naturally welcome you."

As he spoke, Li Dayin made way and led Feng Chi along the gangway to the Crimson Room.

There is a sea chart hanging in the bird's room, and the facilities are messy.

A fire pit was burning with charcoal fire, driving away the cold.

"Come on, this is the Yangchun wine I just found from the Central Plains. It has not been Kaifeng yet... Brother Feng, you are here, so you must have good wine to entertain."

As he spoke, he asked a maid in the bird's room to warm up the wine.

Li Dayin was lustful and had dozens of wives and concubines in his family. Every time he went to sea, he would bring beautiful maids with him.

Don’t think that these beautiful maids are easy to deal with. The maids in Li Dayin’s room are all skilled in fencing and extremely skilled in swordsmanship.

"Dayin, I fell into trouble a few days ago!"

Feng Chi sat down, took a sip of wine, and then said straight to the point: "I think you are occupying the cicadas, so it's impossible for you to not know about this."

The smile on Li Dayin's face gradually disappeared.

He looked at Feng Chi and sighed after a while, "Brother Feng, is that Han army so powerful?"

The Changcen thief was defeated on the Ocean Island. How could Li Dayin, one of the two actual controllers of Lelang County, not know? But he didn't expect that Feng Chi would say this without any concealment. This also shows that the power of this Han army is probably beyond imagination.
To be continued...
